Baby carriers

My baby is around 5kg she is a heavy baby. I think I'll only be using it to clean the house and maybe here and there to go out. I would only be getting my partner to use it as well.
I just tried using a sling my sister passed onto me and it didn't work for us she just looked squashed and. It very stable.

I had a baby bjorn carrier the first time around, I found it to be a strain on my back, I also had a sling which DD hated. This time I have an ergo sport which I was lucky enough to win, I have heard great reviews about them and even overheard a conversation in the supermarket where a mum was wearing one and couldn't recommend it enough to the cashier she was talking to, she mentioned that she had a bad back and it was great and the one thing every one should have, although I cannot yet speak from personal experience I am very much looking forward to using it!

I use a sling most days at work and the ergo when out and about. My DD is 6 months old and around 8kgs. She loves sleeping in the sling. She tends to fight every sleep yet she's out in a few minutes as soon as I put her in the sling. I'm only new to our ergo but love it. It's much easier to carry around 8kgs in that than in the sling.

The manduca looks very similar to the ergo but more sleek and compact. I just wanted to add that the ergo sport has longer straps than the old original ergo, they have a few different styles now even one that can be used in water. I wanted an ergo with my first 8 years ago but I wasn't willing to part with the money and my baby bjorn was a gift so I just used it instead.
